[OSGeo-Discuss] Fwd: Board nomination: Astrid Emde

[Jorge Sanz]

Super happy to see Astrid willing to get into the Board.

As Jachym and others said, it's impossible not to love her. Astrid is
always attentive, hard worker, always close giving a hand and a great
colleague on any project you are lucky enough to coincide with her, in my
case OSGeo Live and as a backup on the OSGeo News editors team that I can
recall now.

All the best
